  • Dating of photos

    Any ideas on when these would have been taken - I'm thinking 1890's for the first and about 1910 for the second. Thanks

      I think you are looking closer to 1910 for the first one.

      I have some photos of my gg grandma from 1913 (dated) and she is wearing very similar, long sleeved blouse and skirt.

      I'd say the other was closer to 1920.

      The lady is the same in both pictures.

      Remembering: Cuthbert Gregory 1889 - 1916, George Arnold Connelly 1886 - 1917, Thomas Lowe Davenport 1890 - 1917, Roland Davenport Farmer 1885 - 1916, William Davenport Sheffield 1879 - 1915, Cuthbert Gregory 1918 - 1944

        looking at me book i'd say that the first pic is between 1911-1912

        the second pic might be as late as 1930

          Ok thanks, that's very interesting, as the man in the first photo was tentatively identified as someone who died in 1903 aged 60, but now seems unlikely to be him. I know who the lady in both photos is and she died in 1938 aged 77, and I think it must be one of her granddaughters with her.

          Thanks for your help.

            Have looked at these again and she has a bit of a look of my great great grandmother about her. She doesn't have any Davenprot or Skillman ancestry does she?

              None found to date Tom, just generations of ancestors from the far north of Scotland (near John o'Groats) Calders and Stewarts.
